    Anyone with HID conversions?

    The worst part is is that it's illegal in most states unless they came oem or you have a projector but cops and inspection places won't enforce it Hondas are the worst because you can get headlights with the projectors for $250 and most of those will come with the bulb ballast etc to run them...

    Anyone with HID conversions?

    It's honestly not bad if it's just the 4300 or 5k. But the 8k and 10k suck for other drivers

    Anyone with HID conversions?

    Yes but coming straight on bright ass blue lights blind you more than regular high beams. Why should I have to tint my windows because some douche in a truck thinks it's cool? That's like saying I should be more patient so someone in a hellaflush car can take 20 minutes to get over a speed bump

    Fun in the Snow

    Firestone winter force ftw. A lot of people keep winter wheels for snow. Keep a skinny tire like a 185 does great If it's auto leave it at home. Manual going up hill try using 2nd gear instead of first. Helped me get home with 215 summer tires

    Exhaust build

    Ebay header deletes the precat. Non fouler trick will handle the cel and you will still pass emissions unless they look for the precat. Most will just check the main cat. Search non fouler if you don't know what it is Racing beat may or may not be loud enough for you. I thought it was too quiet

    Looking for another one

    I miss my protege and am in the market for another one. If anyone sees a local yellow MP3 or orange or yellow msp for a reasonable price let me know. Bonus points for a spicy I've found a couple but they have been modded a good bit and more than likely ragged out. Or total rust buckets Willing...

    What to buy next? -Life after the P5

    Umm if they so much as think it's going to flurry roads are brined and salted. Not to mention I drive a truck for a living, don't act like I'm only in Virginia. I'm sorry that you're in one state and have one bad car and now think all cars of the make are bad, if you hate salt and snow and...

    What to buy next? -Life after the P5

    Also if you don't wash off all the slushy salt water that gets up in the under carriage only to freeze. You're asking to have a rust bucket. It will eat the s*** out of the metal pretty quickly especially in New York where it's colder for longer and it never melts so it just kind of stays there...

    What to buy next? -Life after the P5

    I deal with snow and salt, no rust on mine because they've been taken care of. My 92 prelude is starting to bubble up on the rear quarter panels but guess what that means? Sand it, smooth it with bondo and touch up paint. And explain why I've never seen a rusty plow truck? One of the dot ones...

    What to buy next? -Life after the P5

    There's a thread on the forum going into rediculous detail about it. Mazda and ford were partnered and ford did do most of the designing and mazda used in in the 626 along with the klde also designed by ford. When ford rolled out the zetec they dropped it but mazda continued to tweak it until...

    What to buy next? -Life after the P5

    Umm mazda didn't produce the engine. Ford made it and discontinued it for a reason. Mazda slapped coil packs on it and said good enough And rust doesn't just happen. It's from never washing/ waxing. We get a lot of salt on our roads and mine wasn't rusty at all because it was washed once a week...
